Satellite L300-29U hangs in the meantime ODD lends itself

I sell Toshiba.
I always do recovery dics for my clients. I do it on Philips DVD.
Now, I tried Windows 7 on a positive and trying to get back to vista again before selling the laptop.

The problem is that when I try to recover, the system hangs at "waiting for ODD lends itself.

I've tried several things,
-formatting the hard drive
-remove the partition
-windows vista oem CD (installs fine, fact 7) etc.

I have another laptop in stock, so I used that one recovery disks, consequently it hangs at the same point.
Now, I tried to restore the other laptop (same model) and one recovery dvd freezes at the same point.

I think that there is a programming error in the program of recovery DVDs.

Welcome,

Have you tried to reset the BIOS to default settings?

  • Satellite L300-29U - Vista crashes, even in safe mode

    Hi, I really hope there is someone out there who can help me, my laptop does not work (properly) more, and I don't know what is the cause.

    * The short version: *.

    Two days ago my computer froze all of a sudden for no apparent reason. It did not (without Ctrl-Alt-Del, etc), I could only move the pointer. Since then, has happened repeatedly, even in safe mode. A potential clue: runs chkdsk c: \r \f results in a blue screen.

    * Details: *.

    I have a Satellite L300-29U (about 3.5 years) with Windows Vista.
    Two days ago the computer is not responding, after running normally for a few hours. I had not installed a new hardware or software. Even the clock had stopped. Only the pointer could be moved, but clicking on had no effect, or no has Ctrl-Alt-Delete. I stopped him via the power button. It restarted normally, I opened it then Firefox, but shortly after the same problem has emerged.
    I selected the Mode without fail to start and then let my antivirus (Avira) program a complete check of the system. The computer froze again after about an hour and 30% in the analysis. (Curiously, the timer showing how much time had passed since the beginning of the analysis was still running, but had stopped the clock of the computer.)
    Later, I tried another full analysis and again once it froze. Before that, I ran a few quick scan negative that came.

    In general, I find that Windows starts fine, but in normal mode it freezes pretty quickly when I try to do something. In safe mode, it freezes more quickly, but it's still sometimes.

    I also tried the "repair your computer" option at startup.
    -System Restore does not help
    -Memory Diagnostic is not a problem

    Searching online, I found suggestions for select command prompt and try to chkdsk. My conclusions:
    -chkdsk c: /f gives no indication of errors. The only thing that might be unusual is the following message at the end (translated from Dutch): "cannot transfer the log to the event log messages. Status 50. »
    -chkdsk c: /r /f results in a blue screen, each time to the same point in the process, namely, the 4th stage (verification of the data of the file), after having transformed the 133 634 files. The blue screen that appears shows the following:

    -----
    QUOTE
    A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
    (...)
    Technical information: * STOP: 0 x 00008086 (0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
    WORDS
    -----

    * Things I have NOT tried (again): *.

    -Execution of TOSHIBA hard drive recovery
    -Formatting the hard drive

    Why not try these again is that I still have a glimmer of hope that he might be up to a corrupt file, and I don't want to use a gun if it turns out to be a mosquito.

    I tried to look online for questions asked by people with problems and similar symptoms, but I find not only the case with some similarities, not exactly the same thing.

    Any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

    > Two days my computer froze all of a sudden for no apparent reason
    Above all it s sign parts hardware problem as a module of memory or the motherboard can cause this.

    > Since it happened repeatedly, even in safe mode. A potential clue: runs chkdsk c: \r \f results in a blue screen.

    The command chkdsk access and HARD drive tests so it could also be that the HARD drive is the troublemaker.

    From my point of view, you should start the recovery and should set the device to the factory settings.
    If the device would not work even after you have used the factory condition, I guess that one of the mentioned parts malfunctions.

  • After standby mode Satellite L300 cannot connect to the internet

    Hello

    I have problems with my Satellite L300, if I put the laptop to sleep it disconnects from the internet and when I try to continue later, he said that there are no wireless networks.
    The only way I can connect again is to restart my laptop. Can someone help me please?

    Thank you

    Hello!

    I have a Satellite L300 too but I can t view such a question because I often use the Hibernate and the day before.

    In any case, I think you should try to install the latest driver from the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    But before installing the new version, you must delete the old first and then reboot the laptop. After that, you can install the latest version.
    And if it doesn't work, you must update the BIOS that you can find on the Toshiba site too.

    Good bye

  • My Satellite L300-110 hangs after BIOS update

    My Satellite falls down after I updated the BIOS. The old version of my Satellite L300 - 110 (PSLB0E) BIOS was 1.40 and upgrade to 1.50.
    From there on, my system hangs over and over again.

    Any help please. I cannot install Office Enterprise 2007, cannot defragment all my readers.
    Is there an option to restore changes made to my BIOS?
    Help!

    The default settings in the BIOS load after the update?

    You can reinstall Windows with the Toshiba Recovery disk? First back up your data because the HARD drive will be formatted and then start the installation of recovery.

    A restoration to the previous version of the BIOS is not possible, because on the Toshiba site is only the most recent (1.50) BIOS. Only an ASP (authorized service provider) can do a restore.
    You can search for an ASP here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported downloads & => find an ASP.

    I don't know Mr. but you did a backup of the old BIOS? Maybe you can Flash this back.

    > 1) I have to partition and format the new drive before starting with recovery disks / DVD (s).
    or which will be done through the recovery process?
    No, because the HARD disk should be formatted during the recovery process.

    (> 2) what is the reason for which the current disc is divided into two size equal partitions C: and D:, while
    D: partition seems to be reservered for the system, but only 5 GB are used?
    On the D partition, you can find the files and folder from HARD drive recovery. HARD disk recovery allows you to recover the laptop HARD drive and in this case, you don't need the recovery disc

    (> 3) what is the purpose of the partition 3. ("inactive") with about 1.5 GB of space?
    It is a Vista partition and is necessary for the backup files. Vista is able to repair the operating system if something bad is going to do this the necessary files that are stored on this partition.

  • Satellite L300 - recovery ends with the error message: 10-FA1Z - 045D

    My Satellite L300 is 3 months old and one a few days ago I resorted to the use of the 4 recovery DVDs.
    After several hours, I get an error: 10-FA1Z - 045D message. I made 3 attempts and get the same message every time.

    Any suggestions?

    My only suggestion for that is you should contact the closest service provider authorized as soon as possible. I am not sure what can be the problem, but it must be HARD drive issue or a problem with the recovery image.

    In both cases, you will get free and if necessary service service can order new DVD of facilities of recovery for you.
    Do not wait too long and vase your time with her. Call the nearest service tomorrow and talk to them.

  • Can satellite L300-1AQ - I use the L300D recovery disk?

    My son has a Satellite L300-1AQ equipped of vista. All of a sudden will load is more the laptop and automatic repair options fails too. There is a blue screen that appears, but only for a second when I try the repair option - then the laptop stops. We have no recovery disks.

    Also, I have a laptop Satellite L300D-13 s that works well and suppose I could get a drive recovery- but prob diff drivers etc.

    Can someone advise me how best to my sons laptop (Im not concerned about retrieving data as all saved already), but do not want to return to the factory settings including Vista. Do not know if using a laptop recovery disk is an option - instinctively is not as ever as simple as that.

    All advice welcome please.

    Hi mate,

    I can t imagine that the Satellite L300D recovery disc will work on Satellite L300. The hardware platform is different, because a single machine is equipped with Intel CPU and the other with AMD processor, so there's a big difference.

    In addition, in the worst case, it could be a hardware problem and in this case the recovery disk does not work

    What can you do now? I think you have to options: either you install Vista from a disk of Microsoft or order you a Toshiba Recovery disk: https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    After installing the Microsoft disc, you can download all the drivers on the Toshiba site. Then you will also get back to factory settings, but it takes more time in the recovery disk because it contains an image which already all the drivers and tools are included/installed.

    I hope I could help a bit. :)

  • Satellite L300 Wireless icon has the Cross Red but connected - SOLUTION

    Satellite L300. Home Premium Windows 7 32.

    Updated the wireless driver Atheros to the download area of Toshiba (the newest driver released on 11/27/11). After the reboot, the icon in the notification area wireless shows with red cross through it even if it is connected. Not a big deal but annoying.

    Corrected by:
    (Note: you must take note of your routers WEP key before doing this and if SSID is not it broadcasts)

    1. go on the network and sharing Center
    2. click on manage networks wireless on the left-hand menu
    3. highlight your connection and remove it.
    4. stop and restart the network connections service (to go to the Services console right-click on computer in the start menu and click on manage.) Expand Services and Applications, click Services).
    5. reconnect to your network by choosing from the list of available and entering the WEP key (or use him manually add... option if you must enter the SSID).
    6. If still the same then restart and reconnect to your network.

    Worked for me.

    Alternatively you can try of course to roll back to the old driver.

    -DVD - RW SuperMulti drive (Double Layer)

    Also, if you think this laptop is good enough for the games, could you please give me any recommendations for a good (but not too expensive) :)

    I'd appreciate any help.

    Thank you

    Hey,.

    What you want to improve exactly?

    As you probably know Satellite L300 is not one that is suitable for the games because the graphics isn't one model high-end. Satellite, Qosmio series and P have the best graphics cards and faster processors, so if you are looking for a new notebook, take a look at these models.

    What you can to improve the game performance are updated the display driver and DirectX version. Disable all programs that you don't need before you start the game like antivirus, firewall, Skype, etc.
    If it doesn't help to try to reduce the details of the game and test a lower screen resolution.
